Andrew Reeves can still recall his reaction to seeing the heritage buildings at Confederation Heights when he moved to Ottawa decades ago. “I remember just looking at them in awe,” says Reeves, who studied architecture at Carleton University and launched Linebox Studio in Ottawa in 2007. “They’re beautiful, international-style buildings, properly designed, properly built.

Stocks with sustainable dividends and primed for growth even if inflation continues its rise. The screenInflation in the United States accelerated to 3.7 per cent in September, driven by higher energy prices. (Canada’s 3-per-cent inflation rate for August is expected to hold steady for September.) It’s uncertain when relief for U. S. businesses and consumers will arrive given expanding conflict in the Middle East now threatening to block another key shipping route for oil. Our analysts at The Successful Investor think the best strategy to minimize inflation’s impact is to buy dividend stocks likely to do just fine if price escalation continues or if inflation starts to slow.

The fund's latest holdings correspond strongly with some of the worst performers lately so the story fits, including top holdings Nebius, Bloom, Lumentum and CoreWeave. After that rumor began to do the rounds, there was some dip buying in stock markets that snowballed. The thinking may follow what happened with Situational Awareness where once it was clear what happened, the buyers returned.

Jason Metcalfe, Interim CEO of the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce. (Image Credit: Jason Metcalfe via the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce.) CHILLIWACK – Chilliwack has been my home for a long time. It’s where my family and I have built our lives. I’m a husband, a father of four and a business owner. I’m proud to now serve as Interim CEO of the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce. First, a sincere thank-you to Leanna Kemp for her years of service to the Chamber and to our business community. Leanna leaves behind strong relationships, a dedicated team and a lot of goodwill. I’m grateful for her help in making this a smooth transition. I also want to thank our Board of Directors for trusting me to lead the Chamber over the next few months as we prepare for its next phase of growth. I’ll admit it. I’m a self-proclaimed business nerd, and one look at my bookshelf will tell you that. Business has been part of my life from the start. It started as a kid, where I’d wander through The Bay department store with my mother and always end up rearranging their messy shelves and displays. How were they going to sell anything looking like that? To me, everything had to be just right.

Susan Holt, the premier of New Brunswick, says the Mactaquac Generating Station often gets called “the battery of the Maritimes.” But if you’ve ever found an old phone in a drawer with its case bulging open, you might hear that nickname a little differently… Because this battery’s been swelling for about 40 years.

As a new DC Mayor and DC Council face budget spending pressures and slow revenue growth, one idea that has begun appearing is a Business Activity Tax, or BAT. The Fair Budget Coalition urges the creation of “a Business Activity Tax (BAT) to ensure all businesses pay their fair share of DC’s business taxes,” citing an estimated $500 million in extra revenue at a 2% rate. Likely next Mayor Janeese Lewis George has expressed openness to a BAT, and the D. C. Council has directed the Chief Financial Officer to report on the feasibility of a BAT by January 2027. The D. C. Fiscal Policy Institute writes that a BAT “would make business taxation fairer and more racially equitable while raising significant revenue for the District.” The D. C. Tax Revision Commission considered a plan to impose a 0.9% BAT (including a 0.5% rate on nonprofits) and use the revenue to reduce other business taxes, but ultimately did not produce a report of recommendations in large part due to opposition to the proposed tax. No other state imposes a BAT, nor is the concept familiar even to tax experts.
